DETROIT — David Montgomery has the dream often. His eyes will close. His mind will drift. When he’s sound asleep, he’s taken to a place unbeknownst to him and the city he resides in. It’s new and exciting. The type of dream that leaves you wanting more when it ends.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery missed the final three games of the season with an MCL injury but is on pace to return for Saturday's Divisional Round matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Detroit opens up their postseason play at home against the Washington Commanders Saturday Jan. 18 at 8 p.m. ET. The Commanders head to Ford Field after a thrilling win in the wild-card round where they survived against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a last-second field goal.
